Well shit looks like I'm going to be getting some intentionally older hardware. The newer processor that I was looking at from Intel I guess has something called an NPU or a neural processing unit which not only doesn't have a lot of Linux support at the moment from what I'm aware of. It's a processing unit specifically designed to help with AI task loads and since I'm not doing anything AI related on this computer I'm not sure I want that in my computer. Glad I took a closer look at this. 😅
